There are certain stops on the CanGems tour that we look forward to every year — and Winnipeg is absolutely one of them.
This October, Silver Cove is heading back to Manitoba for the Winnipeg Rock N’ Gem Show, and we're bringing thousands of new treasures along with us!
As the largest show of its kind in Winnipeg, this is a weekend made for rockhounds, crystal lovers, collectors, jewelry enthusiasts, families and anyone who loves discovering something a little out of the ordinary.
And this year, we can't wait to show you what we've been finding.
Thousands of New Treasures Are Coming to Winnipeg
One of the best parts of travelling across Canada with CanGems is getting to bring an enormous variety of treasures directly to communities across the country.
For Winnipeg, we're packing up thousands of new pieces to explore.
Expect an incredible selection of crystals, minerals, gemstones, fossils, polished stones, rough specimens, towers, spheres, carvings, jewelry, beads, collector pieces, home décor and so much more.
Some pieces are small enough to fit in the palm of your hand. Others are the kind of statement specimens that make you stop in your tracks.
Whether you're searching for something specific or simply planning to wander and see what catches your eye, there is always something new to discover.
One of Our Favourite Stops on the CanGems Tour
Winnipeg holds a special place on our tour.
We travel to communities across Canada throughout the year, but there's something about the excitement and enthusiasm Winnipeg brings to the Rock N’ Gem Show that makes this one of our favourite events.
We get to reconnect with familiar faces, meet brand-new collectors and watch people of all ages experience the show for the first time.
Some visitors arrive knowing exactly what they're hunting for.
Others come because they're curious.
And some walk through the doors having absolutely no idea what they're looking for — until they find it.
That's part of what makes a Rock N’ Gem Show so much fun.
More Than Just Shopping
The Winnipeg Rock N’ Gem Show is also an opportunity to explore, learn and experience the incredible natural world up close.
With so many different rocks, minerals, crystals and fossils gathered together, there are endless opportunities to discover something you've never seen before.
For younger rockhounds, especially, a trip to the show can spark an interest in geology, fossils, minerals and the science behind how these natural treasures formed.
For experienced collectors, it's a chance to examine new specimens, add something special to a collection and connect with others who share the same passion.
And for everyone in between?
It's simply a really fun way to spend the day exploring.
From Across the World to Winnipeg
The treasures you'll see at a CanGems Rock N’ Gem Show have travelled a long way before arriving in Manitoba.
Silver Cove works to bring together an incredible variety of pieces, giving visitors the opportunity to see natural treasures from around the world all in one place.
And then there's the journey to Winnipeg itself.
Behind the scenes, our crew packs, transports, unloads and sets up thousands upon thousands of pieces before the doors ever open.
It's a massive undertaking — but when we finally see everything set up and Winnipeg starts walking through those doors, it's worth every kilometre.
Winnipeg, Get Ready to Treasure Hunt!
Whether you've been coming to the Winnipeg Rock N’ Gem Show for years or this will be your very first visit, we can't wait to welcome you.
Come explore thousands of new treasures, discover something you've never seen before, learn a little along the way and see why this has become one of our favourite stops on the CanGems tour.
Bring your family. Bring your friends. Bring your fellow rockhounds.
And maybe leave a little extra room in the car for what you find. 😂💎
Winnipeg — Silver Cove is coming, and we're bringing the treasures with us!
